Early life and education

Kabub was born in Jaffa, and is a Muslim. After graduating from high school in 1975, he studied at Tel Aviv University, completing a BA in History and Islam in 1981 and a BA in Law in 1988. In 2011, he completed a master's degree in commercial law with honors, which was awarded jointly by Tel Aviv University and the University of California, Berkeley.[1]

From 1989 to 1997, he worked as a lawyer in private practice. In September 1997, he was appointed a judge on the Netanya Magistrate's Court, and in 2003, he was appointed a judge on the Tel Aviv District Court. Since that year, he has also taught courses in corporations and economics at Bar-Ilan University and Ono Academic College.[1] In August 2010, he was appointed to serve in the economics department of the court.[2] In 2014, he was added to the list of candidates for the Supreme Court.

Kabub gained a reputation as an outstanding jurist in the economic, civil, and criminal fields.[3] Notable cases he tried include those of business magnate Nochi Dankner, who he sentenced to two years imprisonment and a NIS 800,000 fine for securities fraud, and director of the Israel Electric Corporation Dan Cohen, who he sentenced to six years imprisonment and a NIS 10 million fine for fraud, breach of trust, and obstruction of justice,[4]

Kabub was a candidate to replace Supreme Court judge Yoram Danziger upon his retirement in February 2018. Two days before the selection committee was scheduled to meet to make its decision, he withdrew his candidacy.[5]

gollark: It also ships a "fuse filter" thing, which is apparently based on similar principles but mildly more compact, except construction can fail, and according to their empirical testing it needs over 100000 keys to have a decent chance of not failing, and the only explanation is a link to an incomprehensible paper on properties of hypergraphs.
gollark: I found a crate for it.
gollark: Also, I'm wondering if I *should* actually make it store the full text of stuff, for highlighting the relevant bits.
gollark: As of now the search is just limited to ANDing all the bitmaps; it doesn't do ranking, nearness, multiple boolean operators, sort of thing.
gollark: 3 tokens, right now, I can fiddle with that.
